A member asked:
My left eye is quite nearsighted but my right eye is fine? why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good luck: No good reason. But when you hit your 40's, you'll be grateful you can read with that eye without glasses. If this nearsightedness was not present when you were younger, then it's cataract.
